2 months...Really?

When I signed on to my blog today and saw that my last post was in April....well, nothing major happened! That's just me and this crazy life! April and May were quite hectic with 2 dance recitals, 1 pre-k graduation, and one 8th grade honors program. Not to mention at least 3 or 4 V.I.P birthdays! June hit like a freight train with V.B.S for a week and then Summer Daycamp for Bailey for 2 weeks. Starting this past week our oldest daughter, Samantha, is with us for an extended summer visit so now the real fun begins! The 2 younger gremlins look forward to this visit all year! We always figured that as Sam got older and more involved with friends she would start to dislike the long visits...but it seems just the opposite! She is a wonderful big sister and truly enjoys her time with them!

My absence from the bloggie world usually means that I have also been super busy making some really cute things! So now we are well into summer and I am well behind on showing you the aforementioned super cute things! But that's OK..I would not trade one minute of my crazy, hectic life for one that is much more sane and relaxed and at a slower pace...hmmmmm seconds thoughts?!?! Nahh!!!!

Oh, another fun thing that I have been trying to accomplish...clean out all of the misc. inventory that seems to be spilling out of every nook and cranny that I have or can create in the house! Right now, if you are a fan of my Facebook page you can see some of the extra cute stuff that I am practically giving away! So hop on over and become a fan....don't forget to leave me a note..cause I love notes!!! Click Here


I have several clients with little boys right now and the boys need that extra cuteness too! It seemed like all last year all of my projects were girl related! So this has been super fun!


I absolutely could not resist putting a picnic ant on this shirt for my niece, Zoey! I wish I would have had my camera in hand when I showed it to her. Pointing to the ant, I said "Look Zoey, what is it"! Eyes wide, face scrunched, she replies "a buug" with a little shudder! Regardless, you have to admit that this ant is welcome at any summer picnic!!


A friend of mine had her little girl's first birthday party last weekend and we were unable to attend! So I had to make her something extra cute! I bought the shirt a size larger than 12 months so that hopefully she will get lots of wear out of it!


This is another outfit that I took home last weekend for Zoey. She is a flip flops kind of girl, just like her Aunt Karla!

More Ruffles and Burps!

I am so proud of myself! Another blog post! Yay me!

OK so a couple of weekends back we went to visit the family in South Alabama! So the night before I scrambled to whip up a pair of cute ruffle pants for my niece Zoey. I think you will agree that they are extra cute with the coordinating shirt! Those are christmas tree lightbulbs all over the pants. It is hard to get a good pic of a busy 2 year old!




Then last week I had a few baby orders to work on.
Quilted diaper bags, burps, and bibs make the best shower gifts!



I think the font on the right with the big "G" might be one of my newest addictions!


Another lady in our are was preparing for a new baby girl and they named her Charlie. I just love this for a little girl!

Zoey!!!

I spent some much anticipated time with Zoey this weekend! Bailey, Caden, and I crashed the gathering that my Mom had at her house for some family and friends to visit with Zoey. NO ONE knew we were coming and it was an awesome surprise!!! I am still recovering a little because I offered to get up with Zoey Saturday night so Mom and Dad could get a whole nights sleep. Zoey's Mommy, Angel, was certain she would be up every 2 or 3 hours checking on me and the baby anyway......HAAAA Angel's head hit the bed at 10:30 and we did not see her again till almost 9 Sunday morning. I would say my mission was accomplished.

Check out the cuteness I made for her!!




Here is a peak at the front of Zoey's outfit.

Bailey had to sneak into a picture!!! Such wild hair.

I think Bailey might have been squeezing a little!!! Might need to do a diaper check after this shot!!! Bailey can not get enough of "baby zoey"

Bailey insisted that we could not leave until she got to feed Zoey a bottle!

This is my brother...yes Zoey has his hairline!
